school
Hi celebration cakes!
Just wondered how I get the kids in school, is it pretty straight forward we are coming in November, have no schooling sorted out. We are just taking the plunge!
Hi again, when we came over our oldest was almost 12, he was the one we was worried about the most with the language, but he learned it quicker than the younger two lol. If your living on Urb. La Marina there are school buses which take them into school. its relitavely easy to get them into school, but you all must have N.I.E. numbers, once you have these you just go to the the school with all your papers, i.e. passports, nie numbers, passport size photos of each child etc, and normally they start vurtually immediately.
hope this helps (p.s. take a translator with you tho, they do speak a little english but to save on time would be more easier for all if you took one, I have friends here who are fluent spanish who charge a minimal amount to do this).
Also amongst your paperwork you will need to take utility bill, padron or other forms of identitiy for where you live, thus enabling you to get free school buses to and from school.
All the best, if I can help in any other matters please let me know.
thanks for that, I dont even know how to get the N.I.E numbers??? but im sure because there are so many English people in La Marina someone?? will be able to help me when I get there. Im hoping anyway. Would you mind if I contact you nearer the time so maybe your friend could help once I get to the schools?
Thanks
Karen
Sorry one more question my youngest is Five,im not so sure about her getting on a school bus on her own, and I dont drive?? are there public buses that go to the schools?
dont worrie about your little one, children get on the bus as little as 3 years old, there is a monitor and a driver always on the bus. NIE numbers are quite straight forward, they are issued at Elche Police station and can take a few weeks, they were 18euros per person when we got ours, but that was over 3 years ago now. Iam sure once you arrive there are lots of people here who can help.

If you own a Holiday Home here and only use it a few times a year - why not get an Income and rent it out ?? Please e-mail [email protected] with your phone number and we will get back to you. Ta very much everyone.............
I really am surprised that more owners don’t let out their properties that they are trying to sell. Seems crazy that so many sell at way below market price and often lose a great deal of money. This way, owners would get an income coming in for quite a few months while the market is picking up.
ELECTRICITY
Electricity conpanies in Spain must carry out meter readings every 2 months, the government has ruled. With the new rule, electricity companies will no longer be able to estimate consumption more than one month at a time - as it was doing - without express consent from the customer.
